Condensed tannins in the gastrointestinal tract of cattle after sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) intake and their possible relationship with anthelmintic effects [PDF]
The fate of condensed tannins (CTs) along the digestive tract of ruminants is not well known and may account for the variable efficacy of CTs against gastrointestinal nematodes in different locations.

Modification of abomasum contractility by flavonoids present in ruminants diet: in vitro study
Flavonoid supplementation is likely to be beneficial in improving rumen fermentation and in reducing the incidence of rumen acidosis and bloat. Flavonoids are also said to increase the metabolic performance during the peripartum period.

Longitudinal Genome‐Wide Association Study for Female Fertility Traits in German Holstein Cattle
ABSTRACT The aim of this genome‐wide association study (GWAS) was to detect significant SNP effects influencing the dynamic process of female fertility in dairy cattle over lactations, to identify possible candidate genes and to study their role in pathway analyses.

A study on some aspects of the pathogenicity, diagnosis and control of gastrointestinal nematodes in deer : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Animal Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
The most important parasites in farmed red deer are Dictyocaulus eckerti and gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). The overall aim of these studies was to develop an understanding about GIN parasites in red deer, including their pathogenicity, diagnosis ...

One of the most concerning ruminant infections is the parasite Ostertagia ostertagi. Known commonly as the brown stomach worm, it is ingested by grazing cattle where it then progresses its life stages, occupying the host abomasum and then the intestine ...

Radioiodine Absorption and Secretion by the Calf Abomasum
Abstract The bidirectional passage of radioiodine between the blood and abomasum was investigated in 12 anesthetized calves. Ratios of abomasal venous to arterial 131 I concentrations averaged 0.84±0.13 (sd) during 24 minutes and 0.72±0.13 at 24 hours after intravenous administration indicating 16 to 28% removal of circulating iodine by the abomasum.

The protection of the unsaturated fatty acids of dried grass and sunflower seed against biohydrogenation by rumen micro-organisms : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Animal Science at Massey University [PDF]
Ryegrass which had been dried and treated with HCHO was incubated with the rumen contents of a pasture-grazed cow. The protein in the grass was protected from degradation by the rumen microbes.
